Okonkwo (foot) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

Okonkwo was limited in all three of Seattle's practices during the week but has the green light to suit up Sunday. He has 119 receiving yards on 12 targets over the past four games, while rookie fourth-round pick Gunnar Helm has 103 yards and a touchdown on 14 targets during that span. Both Titans tight ends could see substantial involvement Sunday with the team depleted at wide receiver against a Seahawks defense that's allowing a league-high 6.7 receptions per game to tight ends.

Knight (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.

An upgrade to full practice participation Friday makes Knight the clear favorite to lead a backfield that won't have Trey Benson (knee) or Emari Demercado (ankle). That said, Arizona's backfield roles have been highly variable and unpredictable, so it won't be too surprising if Michael Carter and/or Jermar Jefferson also get a large chunk of the workload.

Golden (shoulder/wrist) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Vikings, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

The Packers' Week 12 injury report was jam-packed with wide receivers, with Christian Watson (knee), Romeo Doubs (wrist) and Bo Melton (shoulder) avoiding designations ahead of the weekend. Meanwhile, Golden, Dontayvion Wicks (calf) and Savion Williams (foot) are listed as questionable, and Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder, IR) was ruled out. Golden's status will be confirmed about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, but even if he's available, the rookie first-round pick has managed to surpass 50 receiving yards three times and hasn't scored a touchdown in nine regular-season appearances as a pro.

Benson (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Jacksonville, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.

Benson returned to practice Wednesday as a limited participant and then remained limited during Thursday's session. Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said Friday that Benson has looked good in practice, but it'll apparently be at least one more week until the RB is ready to return. With Emari Demecardo (ankle) out this week, the Cardinals signed Jermar Jefferson from their practice squad to provide depth behind Bam Knight and Michael Carter.

Walker (glute) was added to the injury report Friday and is now listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Tennessee, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Walker wasn't listed on the injury report Wednesday or Thursday. It's possible something happened during practice Thursday or Friday, but for now we just know that Walker is listed as questionable for Sunday's game.

Doubs (wrist) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game versus the Vikings, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Among Packers wide receivers listed on the injury report this week, Doubs, Christian Watson (knee) and Bo Melton (shoulder) avoided Week 12 designations, Matthew Golden (shoulder/wrist), Dontayvion Wicks (calf) and Savion Williams (foot) are listed as questionable, and Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder, IR) was ruled out. Doubs has received at least eight targets in five of the past seven contests, posting a 32-378-3 line on 53 targets during that stretch.

Stevenson (toe) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals after practicing fully Friday.

Stevenson logged limited practices Wednesday and Thursday, but his full participation in Friday's session has the running back trending toward a return to action after having missed three straight games. Supporting that notion is that coach Mike Vrabel noted of Stevenson on Friday, "I would say there wasn't many restrictions and that he responded well to the practice. I would say that as long as there are not any setbacks here, he'd be in line to play" Sunday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports. In that scenario, Stevenson would be in line to rejoin a backfield timeshare with TreVeyon Henderson, who combined for five total TDs over New England's last two contests. Prior to sustaining his toe injury, Stevenson carried 83 times for 279 yards and three TDs, while adding 16 catches (on 19 targets) for 169 yards over the course of eight games.

Hooper (concussion) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Bengals.

Hooper practiced without limitations Thursday and Friday after a limited session Wednesday, and he has cleared the NFL's five-step concussion protocol. Hunter Henry remains New England's top pass catcher among tight ends. but Hooper could find success against a Bengals defense that has been by far the worst in the league at defending the position, allowing a league-high 80.8 receiving yards per game to tight ends, as well as 12 touchdowns to the position in 10 games.

Watson (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

The Packers eventually listed seven wide receivers on their injury report by week's end, but only Watson, Romeo Doubs (wrist) and Bo Melton (shoulder) avoided designations in advance of Week 12 action. The list of those listed as questionable includes Matthew Golden (shoulder/wrist), Dontayvion Wicks (calf) and Savion Williams (foot), while Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder), who was designated for return from IR and limited at Friday's practice, won't play Sunday. In four appearances since making his season debut with a variety of WR personnel available, Watson has tallied 12 catches (on 17 targets) for 234 yards and two touchdowns.

Greenard (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Packers.

Greenard has a chance to return Sunday after sitting out Minnesota's Week 11 loss to the Bears. After recording at least 12.0 sacks in both the 2023 and 2024 regular seasons, Greenard has only 2.0 sacks through nine appearances in 2025.
